Shakib available in South Africa series

Bangladeshi all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan has decided to keep himself available in the upcoming tour of South Africa.

He made the remarks after a meeting with Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) President Nazmul Hasan Papon on Saturday.

After a discussion with the cricket board officials, Shakib has changed his decision to take a break for the betterment of his mental and physical health.

The left-hander added that he would leave for South Africa tomorrow night.

Besides, he is available for all three formats after going through the one-year plan of BCB.

Shakib earlier asked for the rest while leaving the country after the Afghanistan series, saying that he is not enjoying cricket at this moment as he is not in good stead physically and mentally.

Following his statement, the Bangladesh Cricket Board has allowed him to take a break from all forms of cricket till April 30, considering his mental and physical health.
